Intent
outcome
Record how infra and HQ stand towards each other, in the owner's words.
Decision
context
On 30 October the owner said that infra is one aspect HQ will manage and that infra lives happily outside this context, and pasted a plan for initializing the new environment, calling it not critical. The owner's next words were: "Infra is currently outside of context but it needs to be isolated. It needs to manage the isolated HQ. Needs to be super isolated." The owner also defined the word: "Isolated means that HQ can do long-term planning, high-level design, and so on, and when things settle, to reduce the noise and to have cross-project context. It actually initiates detailed planning and execution sessions in the engineering environment."
decision
HQ is isolated in the owner's sense: it keeps long-term planning, high-level design and cross-project context apart from detailed planning and execution, which it initiates as sessions in the engineering environment. Infra is super isolated and manages the isolated HQ. Deployment and access boundaries are designed in infra, and the owner's use of 'isolated' does not itself select a machine, kernel or network policy.
rationale
  • Surprising without context: HQ plans infra's work and infra manages HQ's environment, so each manages the other in a different sense. A real trade-off: the plan names no mechanism and leaves the design to infra, rather than choosing one the owner's words do not.
alternatives
  • Leave infra outside, as today: the owner's word is that it needs to be isolated.
consequences
  • spec:hq.isolation carries the requirement, and infra's own work designs what realizes it.
